Silver Fox Salvage

I stopped by Silver Fox Salvage, after going to the tiny diner that I love so much near the Biergarten. As usual, the place was scattered with sculptures and odd objects, including a sculpture of a headless man wearing a tux. This is a place where your imagination can really go wild. I was drawn to the plaster reproduction of the Three Graces in particular, and can imagine this in a hallway or in a protected but luscious garden filled with hydrangeas. It’s almost as if it could be one of the sculptures in the fancy Yaddo Gardens in Saratoga. Silver Fox Salvage is on 20 Learned St., Albany, just off Broadway, behind Miss Albany Diner and Biergarten. (518) 431-0606. This is a plaster reproduction of The Three Graces. Dimensions: statue, 26″wide x 43″tall x 16″deep; base: 32″wide x 27″tall x 201/5″deep. Condition: Very Good. Price: $1,450.
